It is important that women keep themselves up to date with the latest advances in women's health. Keeping themselves well versed with all the information and services that are currently available. Advances in our knowledge of women's health has shown us now that women and men differ greatly on physiological basis and therefore need to be looked at different when considering treatments.
Our attention should be drawn to the primary areas of concern for all women such as reproductive health, heart disease, female cancers and diet.
Diet is an easy way to avoid some of the biggest killers around today. Most people suffering from heart disease are doing so primarily because they have been partaking in poor diet and little or no exercise. Other conditions such as infertility and diabetes are also brought about by poor diet. Changing this aspect of your lifestyle is vitally important if you wish to avoid the aforementioned conditions and stay healthy.
There has been good news when it comes to female cancers; specifically breast cancer. Early detection and survival rates have improved dramatically over the last few years by up to 2%.
Unfortunately some other cancers such as ovarian cancer is still claiming as many victims as it ever did. It is therefore vitally important for women to make themselves familiar with the rather ambiguous symptoms that sometimes present themselves with this condition. A feeling of fullness, changes in urine production, weight gain, pelvic pain and excessive gas can all indicate a need to be investigates further.
Heart disease is the nation's leading cause of death. Men and women both suffer from this condition but it is worth noting that when cardiac arrest takes place, a woman is more likely to die from the event than a man. It is therefore of even more significance to eat a healthy diet and take the regular exercise we mentioned earlier for women in order to minimise any risk of heart disease.
There have been many changes in reproductive health over the years the latest now is a choice of intramuscular injections of patches worn to prevent pregnancy. There is also a new birth control pill that has a slow release dispenser. It releases the hormone over 84 days as opposed to 21, which means a women will only menstruate 4 times a year.
Going to doctor is okay. However, sometimes women need a little more attention, a little more focus, a little more guidance and understanding. Here is where womens health groups offer invaluable womens health services. For all the free information you'll need about women's issues, please visit our website.
